Hail, pilots.
First off, we have some concerning news. It seems the recently purchased 4-11b 'Advanced Splitter' Bretonian Tachyon Cannons we bought from Bretonian Armed Forces. The guns are getting regularly damaged, and the only place we can get replacement parts from is Bretonia, unfortunately, the prices are extremely high on replacing them. We have also been conducting some tests into increasing our R8-E 'Vengeance' Laser Cannons Mk V hull breaching output, the prototypes are being tested now, expect the guns to be in mass production in a month or so. As of both of these changes, all Liberty Navy are to hand in their Splitters to the Liberty Navy armories.
